Forget Me Not short review

Forget Me Not by Alyson Derrick
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

I read She Gets The Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick last year and devoured it, so when I found out Alyson Derrick was coming out with her solo debut I was excited and this book did not disappoint.

At first I couldn't properly get into it but then I hit a certain point and I just couldn't put it down, I sat there and finished it desperate to know how it ended. I've no idea what changed but I loved it from that point on.

I really liked the characters and none of them felt like they were just there for the sake of it. Nora was probably my favourite but then I did also really like Stevie and Ryan. By the end of the book I felt really bad for Nora, if you've read it you'll know what happens in the later chapters but I was also happy for Stevie and how everything ended up working out for her.

I found the plot to be really interesting and it kept me wanting to know what was going to happen to Stevie and Nora's relationship along with the other characters and what had happened in the last two years. There were some bits and characters that annoyed me but all in all I had a good time reading this book and highly recommended it.

Daughter of the Pirate King book review

I was expecting to enjoy this book but nowhere near as much as I did and I really wished I could have given it five stars but it was just slightly off of the mark. Daughter of the Pirate King is the first book in a duology which follows Alosa who is the well-trained seventeen year old pirate daughter of the Pirate King himself, on a mission to find part of an ancient secret map on an enemy pirates ship. This is possibly the first pirate fantasy I’ve ever read, but I loved it and need to read more because there were so many fantastic elements in it that I want to read more. I also now want to read all of Tricia Levenseller’s backlist because of how stunning this book was and I want to see more of it continued in her other books, also the UK covers are absolutely stunning and I really want to own them all! There were twists in this book I was not expecting, characters I fell in love with and moments that made me really laugh. Alosa knew what she wanted and how to ...

The Match book review

Back in April I was recommended my first Sarah Adams book and really enjoyed it however it wasn’t my favourite type of romance book so when I saw this one had been rereleased and was 99p on Kindle I knew that I needed to read it. The Match follows Evie who works for a company that trains service dogs to help people with all sorts of disabilities after her life was changed when she got a service dog to help with her epilepsy and when she meets Jacob when trying to convince him how much a service dog would help his daughter she begins to fall for him and his small family. This was such a light brilliant romance that I just wanted to read and continue to be immersed in the story for as long as I could. I loved all of our major characters particularly Evie, Jacob and Sam (Jacob's daughter). Sam just added the best things to the story and the romance going on between Evie and Jacob. She was also a brilliant character on her own that you really felt for and you just underst...

Rhubarb Lemonade book review

Rhubarb Lemonade was originally published in Swedish in 2019 but has recently been translated to English by A. A. Prime and is due for UK publication on the 8th of June 2023. This book follows Vonya who is spending the summer with her Grandfather on the small Swedish island where he lives. She plans on fixing an old boat and making it seaworthy with some help from her Grandfather, and then she meets Ruth, who’s her age and keeps appearing where she’s keeping the boat, but they don’t seem to have anything more in common. This is a contemporary book and I would probably say it’s more YA than Middle Grade due to some of the language used at certain points in the book. Rhubarb Lemonade is written from Vonya’s perspective, so you hear all of her thoughts on things but it also helps as there are sometimes it moves around the timeline so it isn’t a massive jump or shock as it does in some other books. This book is quite short and doesn’t have a massive cast of characters, Vo...
